Very good steaks and decent sized portions. Service was excellent. Sirloin was a very thick cut (no need to go for the baseball cut).

Falls in the same category as the Old Spaghetti Factory - not what I look for when I eat out. Again, for the money, there are so many other great option! Along Queen St. W., Ossington St., Dundas St. W., etc. Small restaurants that offer incredible food, with a menu that is always changing to offer what is in season... More

My colleagues wanted to go to the keg. I'm not normally a keg person, but I went with the crowd. I don't eat steak, so I had the ribs and they were quite amazing. The ambiance was fun and hip (the bar was knee deep on a Thursday) and the waitress and manager were amazing. One of my colleagues had... More

A bit too noisey for me. Good food, good prices. Service a bit slow and inexperienced staff. Not a bad joint to enjoy a pretty good steak.

The Keg is a corporate chain of restaurants so you generally know what you will be getting in the way of food. What makes this particular Keg stand out is its service. We were nicely greeted at the door and quickly seated. Our initial table was too noisy due to music speakers being above our heads so the hostess offered... More

I met business colleagues here for drinks and dinner. First thing to understand is this restaurant is in the heart of Toronto's business and tourist area and is therefore very busy in the evening. My friends were most comfortable dining in the bar area which has ample seating on elevated stools. All four of us ordered the baseball steaks with... More

This location is a an old standby for business lunches. Ever since the nearby italian restaurant next door destroyed itself through rennovation, I have been taking my clients and colleagues to the Keg more regularly. We've never been disappointed by the food and last Friday evening was no exception. The only tip I can give to prospective patrons is to... More

I've been to the Keg a few times. It's not terrible...but how can it indeed rank as number 6 in ALL of Toronto's restaurants? Service is regular quick-serve type. Food--no. It doesn't compare to any of the other independent steakhouses in Toronto. The meat is not the same, the way it is prepared isn't the same. I concur with the... More
